Spawn Condition[]

  • Spawns when entering from (E-7) Foret de Hennetiel Veil. Must defeat all other tiers of NMs to spawn Dakuwaqa.

Traits and Abilities[]

Dakuwaqa's HP bar is shrouded. It is vulnerable to thunder elemental damage. Extremely resistant to fire and water elemental damage. Dakuwaka's use of Carcharian Verve creates a visible aura effect that gives it an Attack Boost. This aura can be removed by dealing enough lightning elemental damage to it. Dakuwaqa will use Carcharian Verve at 90%, 75%, 50% and 25% health remaining.

Dakuwaka's auto-attacks have special properties:

  • Bite: Single-target physical damage + Defense Down.
  • Front thrust: Front AOE physical damage + knockback.
  • Spin attack: AOE water elemental damage + knockback.

Dakuwaqa's specific damage resistances change with its remaining HP:

  • 100%~75%: -50% blunt damage taken.
  • 74%~50%: -50% piercing damage taken.
  • 49%~25%: -50% magic damage taken.
  • 24%~0%: -50% slashing damage taken.
  • Protolithic Puncture: Single target water elemental damage + enmity reset.
  • Aquatic Lance: Front AOE physical damage, Defense Down, and Magic Defense Down
  • Pelagic Cleaver: AOE water elemental damage + Max HP Down
  • Tidal Guillotine: Front AOE water elemental damage. If this ability hits a player below 50% health, they are instantly KO'd.
  • Carcharian Verve: Removes all debuffs from Dakuwaqa and activates an aura. Grants it Attack Boost and Magic Attack Bonus. Each effect may be individually dispelled. Further grants an undispellable Ice Spikes effect for the duration of the aura.
  • Marine Mayhem: Uses immediately after Carcharian Verve. AOE water elemental damage. Players between 5' and 20' from the boss are instantly KO'd.
  • Casts high level wind, water, and ice elemental magic. Enfeebles players with Bindga, Silencega, Graviga, Paralyga, etc.
